[Vibrant General] Paging Dr B:
What he said ^^^^

Don't lose hope, the SD card is most likely fine, and I've read about the above product working on water logged devices.
[Vibrant General] vnamee:
Pure alcohol will pull the water out and the resultant mixture has a very low evaporation point, so it will quickly dry out areas in nooks and crevices. Rubbing alcohol should do. Also, if its pure, it should have no residue. Anyway, you can google this. It's been done successfully many times. The purer the alcohol, the better. It'll dry a ton faster than just leaving a wet mess in a cup of rice.

Also, rule of thumb is whenever an electronic equipment gets wet, NEVER turn it on. Knee jerk is to see if it still works, and thats how you short it. Leave it/turn it off, and start drying the thing, THEN turn it back on after its done. You'd be surprised how resilient electronics are to simple water if you don't run current through it wet. The LCD is another matter...
[Vibrant General] }{Alienz}{:
Your SD Card is fine.

Your phone is most likely dead.
[Vibrant General] stoanhart:
I can vouch for the rubbing alcohol. I used to repair phones and this worked on several occasions. I always soaked it for a few minutes then scrubbed the circuit board with a toothbrush to remove all residue and minerals from the surface. That part is important because the minerals are conductive and are what cause corrosion and shorts. Afterwards, do the rice thing. I would get a new battery too.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
Pretty cool, I need to learn more about this...
[Vibrant General] Emama:
Alcohol is good for drying the water..

But dont know if it reacts with the organic layer of the screen
[Vibrant General] funeralthirst:
hmmm.. so

1. wash vibrant in jeans

2. panic and pour avery mephistopheles on it (hey, it's 15%!!), substitute dogfish head 90min ipa or stone double bastard if necessary. but under no circumstances are you to use yellow fizzy 'beer'.

3. wait for everything to dry

4. ...profit....?

= P
[Vibrant General] CrazyCharlie:
Your external SD should be fine. It doesn't really have any circuitry inside of it that would be damaged.
[Vibrant General] joshthewaster:
So its still sitting in some rice but I think I'm going to clean it with alcohol tomorrow and try to get the soap residue off. I'll give it some time to dry after that and report back how it goes.

Thanks for the suggestions.
[Vibrant General] nomadrider123:
oh oh I know the answer to this he was multitasking and saving water at the same time :p
[Vibrant General] bartek25:
thats why i always favored blackberries i had like four of them i love to talkk to people when thaking a shower so i droped one BB in the bath tub :P the other one went in to toilet lol both survived just left them overnight dipped in rice only thing that crapped out was batteries had to buy new batteries for each phone ......BTW BLACKBERRY 4 LIFE
[Vibrant General] bartek25:
i take showers with pants on , yes you are weird , leave your pants on . why would u have to put them back when u can keep them on all time HELL THEY ALREADY WOULD BE ON time is money money is pricless , just make sure u dont have a phone in your pocket HA ha

[Vibrant General] joshthewaster:
Thanks for the tips. The phone is dead but I recovered the data on my external SD. Wish I could get the stuff off the internal somehow.
[Vibrant General] mikeb85:
Washed my vibrant .... went through the full wash cycle... put it in rice now it works but fried the camera which is gonna cost me 20 bucks.. just thought id put my 2 cents in
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
Hey, look on the bright side, at least your phone is as clean as it can be now.
[Vibrant General] bartek25:
leave the phone in rice for few more days blow dry with cold air , AND GET NEW BATTERY THIS ONE IS SHOOT I BET !
[Vibrant General] oka1:
Well the memory is now clean :p

Depends how long it was in the washer full cycle ...... not good..... What we do when we flood our cameras (I do underwater photography). is soak in Denatured alcohol, then Rice then Denatured Alcohol. The alcohol attaches to water molecules and prevents corrosion. Bummer dude........ you can always get a new one on craigslist for 250-275
[Vibrant General] joshthewaster:
It's really gone. I did use a brand new battery. The phone had been dried, cleaned and re dried. The damn thing is cleaner and shinier than the day I bought it but it won't turn on.

I've moved on. Had to get a new phone and I went with the Nexus S. My Vibrant was great but after the wait for official Froyo and source it's nice to be running gingerbread. Plus I like Samsungs hardware.
[Vibrant General] bartek25:
tell me which one is better now since u had both ?
[Vibrant General] joshthewaster:
Hardware is pretty equal. I like the look and feel of both. The NS having an led flash is nice. Curved screen isn't really noticeable.

NS is faster and smoother out of the box by a long shot. Samsung's touchwiz actually has some things that I miss such as sliding to adjust brightness, easy access to wifi/bluetooth/gps toggles without needing a widget. And swype. God I miss swype. Other than that the NS is generally as good or better than the vibrant.

Overall I definitely would not have switched if my vibrant wasn't shot. I would probably have held the vibrant until the next google phone or longer.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] nickshertzer:
How to change the device fingerprint and spoof the Nexus S.

From http://nookdevs.com/Honeycomb_Google_Apps_and_Market

Modified with StreakDroid fingerprint ID

Edit the following line:

so that it reads:

This spoofs the Nexus S running Android 2.3.2 per this site

Save the modified build.prop to NC.

Now clear the Market cache. Open the settings app and make the following changes:

Settings -> Manage Applications -> All -> Market

Clear Cache then Force Stop -- DO NOT clear data

Settings -> Manage Applications -> All -> Google Services Framework

Clear data then Force Stop

Then reboot, for example:

Disconnect the USB cable.

Market should now show the protected apps.

The keys for the Xoom:

Information provided solely for informational purposes with no guarantees. Always backup FIRST.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] Meltus:
From what i can gather these settings apply to the Nexus S and the Xoom.

Am i missing something or does this not relate to the Streak at all? :confused:
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] TheManii:
These are to make your device pretend it's a nexus s or xoom, since those are the ones app devs are most likely to make sure their apps work with.

Streakdroid used to pretend it was a nexus one, but it was removed since it wasnt nesscerry anymore
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] nickshertzer:
It should allow you to download apps from the market that are GB or Honeycomb only. The rub being compatibility might not work with Froyo anyway. But hey, it's all about the options!

And from what I can gather, the StreakDroid build.prop still fingerprints as N1 aka passion.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] TheManii:
at least in 1.7.0-1.8.1 it doesnt: ro.build.fingerprint=dell/streak/streak/8x50:2.2/FRF91/eng.cmbuild.20101207.164028:user/release-keys

it simply states it's a streak running 318 (which is the build streakdroid is built off of)
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] nickshertzer:
Ah. I'm still using 1.6.0 StreakDroid because of the noffc framework. The build.prop shows passion on it.

I'm still trying to figure out if changing the fingerprint will allow us to d/l tablet apps meant for the xoom on #MyStreak. (specifically the new Gmail app looks awesome) Of course I just started getting FC all over (not related to build.prop, I think I busted something else playing with Root Explorer) and did a factory wipe.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] XperiaX10Freak:
Damnit

Maybe a late reply, but i'm still doin it as i need help ;)

I did everything you said, but when i open the market, it's still the same as it was before on my xperia x10i. Does someone know what could have gone wrong, and a solution? :)
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] TheManii:
It takes time for market to reconise the change, could take minutes, could take days.

Force closing and deleting the market data might make it faster
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] XperiaX10Freak:
Ill try to wait, and have patience :) Thanks for the fast reply. I did get an email on my gmail that is celebrating me with my new nexus s and stuff (:P). I didn't see any changes in the market yet tho.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] XperiaX10Freak:
oh note, i'm using it on my xperia x10, but it also had mahimi 2.2.1 as fingerprint and stuff. I guess it doesnt matter what android phone you use this trick on?
[General Questions and Answers] dtac92:
Hi,

Not really a newbie but just signed up on xda. I have installed a lot of sd roms using magldr (currently using newest one); however, when I install the mccm honeycomb sense it says everything is okay. But I get the gingerbread htc screen then another page loads up from my cwr roms and blanks out and keeps repeating. I let it sit for over an hour. Also battery light works on the CYCLING blank out screen and is responsive when I pull it in and out.

(I KNOW IT SOUNDS KINDA LONG AND CONFUSING BUT I WANTED TO BE AS DETAILED AS POSSIBLE)

I would move this question to whatever specific phone you are trying to fix...
[HD2 Android SD Development] Pop45398:
I've created an app for dual booting automatically to Android or WM6. V2.3.2 can boot multiple version of Android on a single SD card and can be customized for text content and language. See post #2 for documentation and screenshots.

The "lite" version is a replacement for using a file explorer to run CLRCAD then HaRET, allowing Android to be started with a single tap on an icon. To install the lite version, simply un-RAR the contents to your Android folder then use a file explorer to create a Start Menu shortcut.

Please leave feedback and suggestions/questions.

[HD2 Android SD Development] shadowburt:
Works Great!

Thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] Pop45398:
78 downloads (and another dozen in another thread) and finally some feedback, was beginning to wonder if it only works for me. Am glad it works for you.

My original intent was just to make a script that runs CLRCAD then HaRET by simply tapping an icon on the Start Menu instead of using a file explorer to run them separately like the chefs all say. That is what the "lite" version does. I then remembered I had routines in other scripts I'd written a few years ago that could be used to spice it up.

Hi, I´m gonna try it i a minute - sounds goode - thank you!!!

[HD2 Android SD Development] Pop45398:
Is there interest in RunDroid having the ability to select different Android builds from the same SD card? If enough interest I can do this but because most builds require being located in the Android folder a small .ini file will be required in each build folder so that folders can be renamed then renamed back when a different build is selected. Sorry, I can't edit the original post to make it a poll so you will have to post your interest in this mod.

[HD2 Android SD Development] Pop45398:
New version

I've PMd y'all a download link for v2.01. The new version represents a major overhaul from v1.02 and features the ability to boot to an unlimited number of Android builds and a guided setup that walks through the process on initial running. It will scan all folders in the SD card's root for Android builds, indicated by the presence of HaRET.exe, then ask whether to use that build, then ask if it requires renaming the folder to Android to run (some builds don't require being in the Android folder). A .cab file is used for installation which is now in the RunDroid folder (when installing, be sure to select Storage Card) . The folder name is used for displaying the build's name in RunDroid, with one caveat: if there is more than one build and one of them is named Android, that folder will be renamed to Android[1] so that the selected build folder can be renamed to Android (which is renamed back to original when another build is selected). Whenever another build is added/deleted, one no longer desired to run, or folder named changed (in this case the Droid.ini file in that folder should be deleted), Enable Builds must be selected from the setup menu which will once again walk through the initial setup of builds (but not other settings).

I've tried every combination I could think of and the folder renaming process seems to work fine. Please post if you find any issues.

PS> Order of build appearance is by alphabetical order and can only be rearranged by renaming folders, for example by placing a number at the beginning of the folder name; however, more than 1-9 will screw that up because 10 will appear before 2, etc.

I got problem when i install the 2.0.1 version follow the instruction . After doing set up press yes to all folder but i don't see the Android folder in the main screen :confused: only window . Reinstall delete RUNDROID folder still the some . thanks.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Pop45398:
After install was there a RunDroid folder in the root of your SD card? When running the .cab file you must select to install to Storage Card, not to the Device which is the default when installing cabs. It's best if you don't have an Android folder to start with. Each build should have a meaningful name which will be renamed to Android if required, however the original name will appear in the menu, not Android. I found a problem when reinstalling because of the Droid.ini files that were created on the first install but don't think that is your problem. I have now fixed v2.02 to delete all Droid.ini files whenever a setup of builds is done, whether on initial setup or when Enable builds is selected from the setup menu. Sent PM with new link.

I have had some issues trying to get it to run a SD build, but found the issues had been down the SD Card not formatting via a card reader :mad:

tethering to TF 201 with HTC HD2

Hi,

I am new with Android + tried to connect my transform (android) to my HD 2 (win 6.5) but does not work due to ad-hoc. does this RunDroid app v2.3.2 solve the problem? does anybody has tried it?

thanks a lot in advance

Access to sd card

Big thanks for a fantastic app. Just a couple of issues I am hoping you can help with. If I set to autostart, I can't seem to get to the boot menu - just boots the default os once I have unlocked with pin. I can get around this by opening rundroid manually, but would be good to get to the option menu. Have extended the time but no luck.

Second issue is more of a big deal. Android apps don't appear to recognise the SD card after booting through rundroid. Get error messages along the lines of 'no SD card found' when using camera for example, and settings says to insert SD card before one can be mounted.

This app has has given new life to my old hd2, so again, thanks for a great app.

[HD2 Android SD Development] Schutter:
Works great on my HD2 with W6.5 and Android (running from Desire_DL folder). Both os are Dutch .

To run on Dutch HD2 just edit the AppFolder name in RunDroid.mscr, than let Rundroid create the desired shortcut(s) and then move (with file explorer) the shortcuts from \windows\startup to \windows\opstarten and from windows\startmenu to \windows\start menu

Thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] Pop45398:
I have no clue how it could crash a build as it does nothing to the files besides renaming the folder then running CLRCAD and HaRET just as if they were run from a file explorer. When another build is selected the previous is renamed back to original before the new build folder is renamed to Android. By the way, after you get a build up and running you should copy the data.img (or whatever that build calls it) somewhere so if a crash occurs you can copy the original files plus your saved data.img back so your settings will be restored. Doing this weekly or whenever you make changes or additions is a good idea.

I did find a couple of bugs, one I'm not certain was in the last release or something I broke later, that caused a build not to run on the next running after renaming the folder to Android. The other occurred very occasionally, mostly after having to pull the battery after a build hung on the boot screen, where RunDroid would show as not found upon boot-up due to the SD card not being initiated before trying to start RunDroid. To fix the latter bug installation to the device is now possible, in fact preferred over installing to the SD card as that way it will wait for the SD card to be initiated before going any further.

I have sent everyone who posted their desire for the multi-build version a link to the latest version; however, there was one who only PMed me who I don't remember. If the version was installed via the .cab file, you should first remove the previous version via All Settings> System> Remove Programs then run the latest .cab to install (future versions should automatically uninstall v2.1.1 and above). Read the latest documentation or at least the captions for the screenshots.
[HD2 Android SD Development] yesucan:
Thanks for the tips . Will try the new version and give feedback .

Edit : ok few time of testing i can confirm the New version v2.1.1 Works! The build that i test on my SD Card .MCCM GB V2.1.1 and MCCM HD V4.5 after install the app. i change the build name to Android and Android [1] . Great work man . Thanks again for your hard work :D cheers
[HD2 Android SD Development] iPAQ 6515a User:
Thank you for version 2.1.1

It works perfectly :-)))

I have only one question/suggestion

Is there a way to block phone process like you did with HTC Sense.

My first app to open is Phone PIN Code screen blocking me from the boot options. I need to either press cancel or type my pin to get to the choice of OS's.

Any ideas how to give priority to your app over phone app?
